Cysteine Residues in Helicobacter pylori Adhesin HopQ Are Required for CEACAM–HopQ Interaction and Subsequent CagA Translocation

Attachment to the host gastric mucosa is a key step in Helicobacter pylori infection. Recently, a novel adhesin, HopQ, was shown to bind distinct host CEACAM proteins—an interaction that was found to be essential for the translocation of CagA, a key virulence factor of H. pylori.
